Hello there. As others mentioned there are many ways to help try and manage your anxiety that are not necessarily medicine. Try doing meditation, yoga, walking, etc to try and clear your mind. Anxiety can most definitely prevent you from enjoying the things you love, but you can love them again if you change your habits a bit and begin to manage the anxiety. I hope you are able to rest tonight.
There absolutely is help for anxiety. Anxiety affects sleep, appetite, causes excessive worry, problems concentrating, as well as restlessness. Medication does help, as do behavioral interventions. Seek out professional help. You will get better! Anxiety and panic feel terrible, but CANNOT kill you or harm you physically. Good luck.
Sadley yes.i am faceing the same issue at present.i am allowed to use a light dose of valium but no way.i find music helps.and as much as i sweat here during winter when i go for a walk with anxiety i still go.do u spend all day bye your self.that compounds the problem..imy wife works to the piint i never see here.so we are both stuck alone. I find the problem with our illness if we need medication its all extremly addictive which is why i dont touch it.have been addicted before
I currently have a constant suffocation feeling 24/7 that has been going on 15 weeks now. After getting physical stuff ruled out I am now seeing a therapist. I have a healthy appetite but cannot sleep despite me feeling that nothing is bothering me. My anxiety came out of nowhere. I currently take 1 mg of Ativan a night to at least get sleep. When I tried no sleep aid many times, I couldn't sleep. This is not something I want to be on for the rest of my life either. I'm hoping to get my problem resolved through therapy. I also have an appointment to see a meds doctor about the possibility of a med. just waiting to see what he has to say before I make any decision about that.
I'm outside quite a bit despite the suffocation feeling, tightness in chest at times and head in fog. I'm out for walks, go shopping, read, out for breakfast or lunch. I think happy thoughts. Unfortunately suffocation feeling still there so I can't really enjoy myself.
Maybe a first step is to get set up with a therapist. Good luck.
